Implementing the Paris Declaration: No end in sight

05 October 2011

0ecdsurvey_48726202eng The results of the 2011 Survey on Monitoring the Paris Declaration make for sobering reading, according to the OECD. At the global level, only 1 out of the 13 targets established for 2010 has been met, which makes for a tough agenda as countries prepare to meet in Busan, Korea, for the Fourth High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness.

An interesting finding is that for the indicators where responsibility for change lies primarily with developing country governments, progress has been significant. The report notes that many of these changes require deep reforms that go beyond aid management to broader aspects of government processes.

For additional analysis of the findings, please read the following blog post from the Center for Global Development (CDG), titled: What Happens When Donors Fail to Meet Their Commitments?
